House of Wax Reviews

It’s an early 2000’s slasher through & through: mediocre acting, a soundtrack loaded with alt rock, and great practical gore. It got my skin crawling a few times actually. Only watch if you like campy horror. My only wish is that Paris Hilton was the main protagonist. 💅🏼

⭐️7.5/10⭐️

super creative concept & was very unsettling, but still kept that good old extreme cheesiness aspect. the soundtrack is 🔥. i wish the characters had more development. acting wasn’t as bad as I thought it’d be 🕯️

also, I met Brian Van Holt & he was such a cool dude 🤘

okay don’t get me wrong it’s a good horror film but it’s the first scary movie that i ever watched and it left me with ptsd to wax and i can never watch this movie again. it’s campy and scary and gross. but i’m saying i dislike it cause damn it just doesn’t sit well with me.

idk it could of been better plus I thought it would of been scarier bc of what people say about it. Also knowing that Chad cheated on Sophia Bush with Paris Hilton bc of this movie makes me mad a little bit

I love this movie there’s nothing bad about it. It’s a classic 2000 thriller movie. Jared Padalecki slayyed, and the two siblings are amazing and I love them

i fucking hate this movie so much. it traumatized me. 0/10 do not recommend

4/5 really good I love the plot it was so freaky 🫶

I loved this movie so much, I loved the acting (Paris absolutely devoured her role) i loved the movie references/metaphors and everything.
Just amazing

Although it's filled with stupid characters who make basic horror movie mistakes (they take the detour, accept a ride from a stranger, investigate the creepy town, etc.), it also has a way of getting under the skin.

It was boring

Amazing and sooooo coooll

Good mix of thrill, suspense and gore

first hour was a bunch of nothin

it was kinda slow paced at forst, it only got interesting in the last minutes

another unsettling slasher off my list, very gripping but very disturbing

Need to rewatch

Pretty boring, maybe because i watch it in 2026

Great cast, love the story, and its not the scarriest but great kills, scenes, and situations.

I might be biased, I have a strong interest in wax figures/mannequins etc 😔

Not so bad.
